Enjoy the video of the performance ‘ Macho Sentimental’ occured last June during Milano fashion week in Grand tour studio.

On June 16th 2018, in collaboration with Grand Tour Studio, the designer Bárbara Sánchez Kane has presented a live installation that functions as a dramatic preview of the themes of Sánchez Kane’s next SS-19 collection; a personal investigation for the designer, who as she enters her thirties, frankly confronts social questions of motherhood, femininity, beauty, in a complete re-analysis of her recurrent “Macho Sentimental” theme.

The video has been directed and edited by Marco Colmar and filmed on a hunting surveillance camera.
